    would you play monthly fees for defiance if...

    ... it would offer in return:

    - more frequent bug fixes and patches
    - more frequent content addition such as story , new areas , coop maps , even raids
    - better server stability
    - more customization and items you can purchase for in game currency
    - better character progression , skill development , rewards for being high ego , increased level cap
    - various other improvements

    i think i would pay monthly if it would be a reasonable price , how about u?

    I would leave the game, but I won't be upset over it if that is what they choose to do.

    Short answer: nope.

    Long answer: A sub wouldnt even bring all of that because they've shown they cant deliver on what they say. I wouldnt dare give them cash monthly to say x then kite reasons every week for months of why they couldnt deliver. Or saying they will do/have/give x and watch it turn out to be nothing of what they stated it would be originally. Someone might as well just invest in the brooklyn bridge.

    No, I am a strong believer in the free to play model as I just do not have the disposable monthly income to pay monthly for any game. There are enough free options that I can take my business to. Also, I really doubt a monthly fee is enough to get Trion to pull themselves together regarding this game.

    No.

    There are too many shooters (without monthly fees of their own) that, simply put, have been implemented and designed better than Defiance for it to be worth paying a monthly fee for.

    That said, I've never been a fan of shooters so *shrug*.

    I came here chasing that mythical MMO that had potential of actually being based on player skill and knowledge rather than a focus on gear, something that seemed to fit the concept of a shooter well.

    Maybe if Defiance launched with a sub fee and had a drastically different and amazingly spectacular launch (which would have been a requirement with so many options in the world of shooters that don't have sub fees), things would've been different.

    But I wouldn't have bought into it.

    Yes, I adamantly disagree with the removal of key codes from all emergencies.

    I reserve the right to take personal offense at anyone who disagrees with me, because I find blatant stupidity offensive.

    Why should you pay a subscription fee for shtako that should've been present in the live game? Paying them more money isn't going to accomplish any of that.

    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?

    Yes, with caveats. And those caveats are that they provide a mostly bug free game, lag and disconnect free servers, a minimum of 20 hours a month of new game content and some kind of progression or reward for continued play.

    If they can't provide at least that why would I pay? I've already put about $150 into Defiance between myself and my GF and while I feel as if I've gotten my money's worth, I'm a gamer, not an investor. Show me the roadmap and some sample of the content and I might be willing to sign up.

    Well said, Good Sow or Boar.
    These are just my opinions.
    I have lots of opinions.
    Some of them, on occasion, people have agreed with.
    I do not trust those people.
